    Every SOAP package in YAZ is represented as follows:
    </p><pre class="synopsis">
#include &lt;yaz/soap.h&gt;

typedef struct {
    char *fault_code;
    char *fault_string;
    char *details;
} Z_SOAP_Fault;

typedef struct {
    int no;
    char *ns;
    void *p;
} Z_SOAP_Generic;

#define Z_SOAP_fault 1
#define Z_SOAP_generic 2
#define Z_SOAP_error 3
typedef struct {
    int which;
    union {
        Z_SOAP_Fault   *fault;
        Z_SOAP_Generic *generic;
        Z_SOAP_Fault   *soap_error;
    } u;
    const char *ns;
} Z_SOAP;
    </pre><p>
   </p><p>
    The <code class="literal">fault</code> and <code class="literal">soap_error</code>
    arms both represent a SOAP fault - struct
    <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_Fault</code>. Any other generic
    (valid) package is represented by <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_Generic</code>.
   </p><p>
    The <code class="literal">ns</code> as part of <code class="literal">Z_SOAP</code>
    is the namespace for SOAP itself and reflects the SOAP
    version. For version 1.1 it is
    <code class="literal">http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/</code>,
    for version 1.2 it is
    <code class="literal">http://www.w3.org/2001/06/soap-envelope</code>.
   </p><pre class="synopsis">
int z_soap_codec(ODR o, Z_SOAP **pp,
                 char **content_buf, int *content_len,
                 Z_SOAP_Handler *handlers);
   </pre><p>
    The <code class="literal">content_buf</code> and <code class="literal">content_len</code>
    is XML buffer and length of buffer respectively.
   </p><p>
    The <code class="literal">handlers</code> is a list of SOAP codec
    handlers - one handler for each service namespace. For SRU SOAP, the
    namespace would be <code class="literal">http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/v1.0/</code>.
   </p><p>
    When decoding, the <code class="function">z_soap_codec</code>
    inspects the XML content
    and tries to match one of the services namespaces of the
    supplied handlers. If there is a match. a handler function
    is invoked which decodes that particular SOAP package.
    If successful, the returned <code class="literal">Z_SOAP</code> package will be
    of type <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_Generic</code>.
    Member <code class="literal">no</code> is
    set the offset of the handler that matched; <code class="literal">ns</code>
    is set to namespace of the matching handler; the void pointer
    <code class="literal">p</code> is set to the C data structure associated
    with the handler.
   </p><p>
    When a NULL namespace is met (member <code class="literal">ns</code> below),
    that specifies end-of-list.
   </p><p>
    Each handler is defined as follows:
    </p><pre class="synopsis">
typedef struct {
    char *ns;
    void *client_data;
    Z_SOAP_fun f;
} Z_SOAP_Handler;
    </pre><p>
    The <code class="literal">ns</code> is the namespace of the service associated with
    handler <code class="literal">f</code>. The <code class="literal">client_data</code>
    is user-defined data which is passed to the handler.
   </p><p>
    The prototype for a SOAP service handler is:
    </p><pre class="synopsis">
int handler(ODR o, void * ptr, void **handler_data,
            void *client_data, const char *ns);
    </pre><p>
    The <em class="parameter"><code>o</code></em> specifies the mode (decode/encode)
    as usual. The second argument, <em class="parameter"><code>ptr</code></em>,
    is a libxml2 tree node pointer (<code class="literal">xmlNodePtr</code>)
    and is a pointer to the <code class="literal">Body</code> element
    of the SOAP package. The <em class="parameter"><code>handler_data</code></em>
    is an opaque pointer to C definitions associated with the
    SOAP service. The <em class="parameter"><code>client_data</code></em> is the pointer
    which was set as part of the <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_handler</code>.
    Finally, <em class="parameter"><code>ns</code></em> is the service namespace.
